Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

Straight-line depreciation =900000−12000012=65000=\dfrac{900000-120000}{12}=65000 per year. Book values: after 4 years 900000−260000=640000900000-260000=640000; after 5 years 900000−325000=575000900000-325000=575000; after 6 years 900000−390000=510000900000-390000=510000, not 500000. So (A), (B), (D) are correct.
